The story of Robert Moog, a pioneer in the realm of electronic music whose instruments opened up a world of creative possibilities.

“A compelling documentary portrait of a provocative, thoughtful and deeply sympathetic figure.”
New York Times

Robert Moog changed the course of music history with his invention of the modern synthesizer in 1964. Moog, the film, takes us inside the mind of this legendary figure as he shares his ideas about creativity, design, interactivity, spirituality, and his collaborations with musicians over the years. Even after his death (in 2005, the year after this film was released) Robert Moog continues to shape musical culture with some of the most inspiring instruments ever created.

Moog features in-depth interviews with Robert Moog, plus interviews and performances by Stereolab, Keith Emerson, Walter Sear, Gershon Kinsgley, Jean-Jacques Perrey, Luke Vibert, Rick Wakeman, DJ Spooky, Herb Deutsch, Bernie Worrell, Pamelia Kurstin, Tino Corp., Charlie Clouser, Money Mark, Mix Master Mike, and more.
